It truly doesn’t matter if you spent $100 or $100,000 on your wedding. An experienced photographer can easily make any wedding look luxurious. - and vice versa. If you end up with a photographer who doesn’t know how to properly use their camera or how to shoot with different lighting situations, your photos may end up looking drab. The good news is this is PREVENTABLE. We are here to make sure you choose trusted vendors that treat your day as special as their own. Because what is the point of spending so much of your hard-earned money to not have magazine-worthy photos to look back on. Here is one of our favorite Wedding Photographer AND Coordinators!

Originally from the Netherlands, Elise from @elisevanderleephotography is a Wedding Photographer and Coordinator, now based out of Orlando, FL. She first started as a portrait photographer, but quickly realized that photographing couples and weddings was her PASSION. Her bright and airy editing style is perfect to capture your all your wedding day details.

We have personally built up a great relationship with Elise from collaborating on multiple styled shoots together. She not only spends months planning the mood board, connecting with other vendors, and bringing it to fruition - she then photographs it all on top of that. Here are few things we can tell you about Elise and her work - She is consistent, reliable, and TALENTED!

“I love photographing all of the details during the wedding day. From details like stationery and jewelry - till the details during the reception.”

Elise has two major tips to share with all our Afarose Brides:

Tip 1 - Always have a conversion with your photographer before you book him/her. Ask questions and make sure you get to see a full gallery, to see if you like the photographer's style of photography.

Tip 2 - Hire a wedding planner or day of coordinator. It will make your wedding run so much more smoothly - I'm sure you won't regret it.

Bonus points if your photographer also has experience with planning/coordinating, like Elise! They will know all the in’s and out’s of the day like the back of their hand!
